Have seen this intermittently for a good while now. I wonder if it has anything to do with the recall that was to address the windows force detection when roll up was obstructed.

Taken today at the Nashville Super Speedway. No prep, no wash, but here it is:

50% is the least “stressful” state of charge for a lithium based battery, but there are some opinions out there about how the battery management system may respond to seeing such a narrow range in SOC.

I ordered these in late August and they just came last week. Best upgrade I’ve made. 4PCS for Tesla Model Y 19 Inch Hub Cap Performance Car Replacement Wheel Cap Automobile Hubcaps Full Cover Accessories 2018-2022 (Matte Black) Amazon.com

I have these, too. Love them.

Yep these are pretty terrible. I'd never accept delivery of that car. My delivery experience surprised me. General expectations being what they are on quality control, I thought I'd have a couple minor issues to get sorted. Fortunately, my MYLR was a perfect specimen. Not a single flaw, after 3...

Sorry if I missed this in previous posts, but whenever you decide to buy, if you want FSD you might consider the subscription model. It's $200/mo and can be turned off if finances warrant doing so. You'd be financing 12k less. 5 years would be your point of parity in terms of subscription cost...

I cannot understand it AT ALL. What earthly reason could there be for this long a delay? Even the most arcane configurations have been delivered already (and it’s not like there’s a plethora of options). It’s as if some September orders have fallen through a crack in the delivery algorithm. Ugh...

Turbulent days. IMO, Tesla holds senior position in EV engineering. Build quality is one thing (and Tesla,being more of a tech company, is not the best at it), but knowing how to ramp the product, how to update it (only Tesla and Nio can OTA update both software and firmware), how to maneuver...

Congrats! A GREAT decision you will not regret. I’m happy you ordered the red/white combo you fancied. You only buy your first Tesla once! Maybe don’t install the app right away. I was a cool cucumber until I had that big red “T“ on my Home Screen beckoning me to check, several times a day at...

Has anyone figured out where Tidal stores downloaded content? The app allows album/playlist downloads (as far as I can tell, it's not possible to download single tracks), and I've been able to do this without a USB stick/Micro SD card installed. Is there undocumented native storage in the MCU...

Yikes. I just can't understand how they are letting so many September orders languish. I don't understand what the reason could possibly be. It's not like these are exotic configurations, and they're rolling through October deliveries. It's nuts. My time on the wheel of torture lasted 225 days...

Hmm. I didnt notice myself, but I got a strange look from a passerby when I was talking to my wife the other day…

Congrats, man!

CONGRATULATIONS man! She is a beauty!

I’m stoked for you! It’s gonna be an awesome day!!! Congratulations!

My chips happened with the mud flaps installed. Definitely recommend the PPF.

Not bad. My heart broke when I read about your accident. Fortunately you still get to drive Millie, and she won't have to sit idle waiting for parts!

Can't help ya. Look. I HAD THE PPF IN MY POSSESSION. But I became so enamored of this beautiful little beast that I just HAD to drive it around for 3 days before I could be bothered with putting it on. By the time I calmed down , I'd already racked up two chips. Honestly, I have no idea how...

A quick PSA: if you live in a part of the country in which Tesla doesn’t deliver Model Y with mud flaps and shark fin PPF panels, I highly recommend buying them prior to delivery. Over the course of 200 miles on decent road (no gravel!) I got two tiny chips above the rocker panels. They’re not...

I promised to upload a pic, so here it is - redundant though it may be. This is my Model Y. There are many like it, but this one is mine. Just home from the tint shop, I’d like to introduce Dr. Manhattan:

The deed is done! Very happy with the result. Car is immediately cooler.

Skin-to-seat is my biggest concern, as I sport a cue ball haircut. I imagine if skin contact is causing it, the center arm rest should begin to show some degradation at some point as well.

Man. That’s a beautiful Y. I’m definitely gonna cop a set of the Laminars now. And that shine! Do you have a ceramic coat? I’m at the custom shop waiting for my tint as we speak. Pics coming soon!

Congratulations! You made it! Another survivor of the Tesla EDD Gauntlet rides victoriously off into the sunset. Enjoy it! I trust you’ll take the long way home so that autopilot calibrates in one go LOL!

I wonder if a coat of Gyeon Leather Shield or C2 quartz would prevent this issue? It seems pretty common, but no one is 100% sure of the specific cause.

Over-the-moon exciting!!! So, tell me…is your app running slow? 😂🤣😂🤣 I’m so stoked for you!

Excellent!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Just took delivery yesterday evening. They've got the production dialed in in Fremont. Quality is IMPECCABLE. Not a scuff or ding anywhere. Panels all even, no gaps. Literally a flawless car. Something about it just feels right; it fits me like a glove and now I understand why people say once...

A flawless delivery process today. The vehicle was 100%. Absolutely within spec on every single point. Delivery associate was helpful and friendly; he and I talked for about 30 minutes as he showed me some tips about the car. I drove just enough this evening to a) finish calibrating the...

Those Rimetrix Laminars you have are supposed to have greater efficiency than the Gemini covers, aren't they?

Thanks for the quick review! I'm a coaster, too, so I know there will be an adjustment. My test drive was...less than smooth :) DC called today and I'm picking up in 40 minutes. The wait is over!

Maybe it's the color combo? I have no idea. I know Black is one of the more common colors. It's hard to impossible to predict. All we have is conjecture based on patterns and The Algorithm. Yb123 and Jd2pictures had very similar orders and Jd was delivered on time (original March estimate).

I wonder if there is something about Black/Induction wheels. High demand? There's a guy on YouTube (Myks Garage) with this config and it's been pushed back since August. Super frustrating. I'd think those batches from the factory would be bigger. That said, Jd2pictures (Tessi Vybz on YT) order...

Thanks man! Today I got the news that quality checks passed at the DC, and the car is waiting on the Supercharger. I'm just waiting for the call...

CONGRATULATIONS! It is a beauty! I have those Autailors mats on my list, too! So happy to hear your delivery situation was a good one!

Aahhhh!!! The tension!!! Today, my SA over at the DC said they "expect" my car to arrive TODAY. And "if" all checks out with inspection and parts, they'll let me have it TOMORROW. Am I happy? Oh yeah. But anyone that's been around here as long as we all have knows that's still way too much "IF"...

YOU MADE IT! So good to meet StormShadow!

My day was moved to 5/12, but this weekend the DC said they were expecting to receive it tomorrow. So, if everything is 100%, there’s a possibility you take delivery early.

You should get an email indicating that you have an offer on your trade once they’ve assessed it. You’ll have to go to the web page and accept the offer, then they add it to your finance section.

I saw that in the documentation I read when I was applying for financing with Tesla, but who knows. These delays are such a pain. I had to update my trade in odometer yesterday they offered $100 more. Now the lending agreement numbers are off. So many people praise Tesla’s streamlined online...

Ugh. I just noticed Tesla financing is at 3.24% now. Interest rate locks in for 30 days after approval, but the approval itself is good for 90.

What's good, Tesla folks? Just got a text from SA postponing delivery four days, from 5/8 to 5/12 (next Thursday). Wife will be happy - they saved Mother's Day. 😂😂😂 Text confirmed that the car hasn't arrived at the DC yet. It's all good; my main concern is parts hold.

I don't know how long the train from CA takes, and then the truck from AL. Bookman and I have the same build, headed to DCs about 250 miles apart. As of this AM, I was told <insert grain of salt here> that mine was "In Transport". My assumption is that his is in close proximity. I do hope it's...

Yikes. Sounds like transport. I think it's unlikely that the delivery center would have the car in house at this point.

Same date as me! I promised my wife I will do something super nice for Mothers Day... AFTER! 😂😂😂

DUDE!!! So exciting! It looks like we're finally DOING this thing!

This^. Between ordering at Sept 2021 prices, delayed delivery providing more saving time, and the CRAZY resale values, the equity proposition is super strong on this one.

Just double-checked with Tesla. Car expected to arrive 5/7 at DC for pick up on 5/8. The SA's knowledge, there are no parts holds associated with my VIN, but the final word will be the pre-delivery inspection at the DC on Saturday. I'm down to the last item on my personal delivery checklist...

My EDD went from a 15-day May/June to a 30-ish day May-July 3 days before I got my VIN. Yep. Went from a 30-day window to VIN. Can happen. I hope that's what happens in your case!
